  Open DIPS IS a sandbox — the whole developer programme is a virtual DIPS Arena test environment
  containing only synthetic data. Values below are published by DIPS on its own getting-started and
  data pages and are reproduced as published. The synthetic Norwegian national identity numbers DIPS
  lists beside each test patient are deliberately NOT reproduced here; they are on the linked page.

    There is no test-vs-live key pair. Open DIPS is a separate environment; access to a real DIPS
    Arena client environment is a separate commercial agreement, not a mode switch. That means an
    application validated here still has an unmodelled step before it touches real patient data.

    DIPS states this is "not a comprehensive list of all the data that exists in the sandbox, but a
    starting point". Each entry on the data page also carries a synthetic fødselsnummer, not
    reproduced here.
